hi, i just made little 3d background for my little 10g tank, its going to be my frontosa fry tank for a short time growup tank,just wanted to share with u guys,
i am a tile guy, and i had some leftover 12*12 peeble ( river rock) stones,i used to installe it the shower floors, i just use less than a 2 pieces, and some window/door slicon and couple old fake plants pieces,
first u need to clean the back of your tank and cut the pebble rock sheet to fist on the back, and the rock sheet has some gaps beetwen and i used some small gravels to cover it with slicon, it will make the look better and wont show tht much mesh gaps on the back, and i glue some fake plants to make look real, if u try to buy these stuffs u can find the pebble rocks in any tile shops or any home depot, i think its 3 or 4$ a sheet maybe less i cant remember, and some window/door slicons and other things if u wanna decoret it the way u like
here the pic of stuffs and tank,
i hope u guys get some idea from it
best luck ;)

SWEET, MAN!

That's amazing. I want to make a 3d concrete background for a mangrove themed fiddler/moon crab tank.

Great idea, dude.
